You deserve to feel strong, confident, and beautiful- but for many women and teens, anxiety, depression, or trauma can lead to feeling lost, misunderstood, or stuck in negative patterns. Maybe you aren't who you used to be and want to find your inner strength and confidence to build positive, healthy connections. You want to manage stress without feeling completely overwhelmed and find strategies that actually work to reduce sadness and anxiety. If you're looking for some guidance on how to get there, give me a call. At Connections, our clients find success in learning to trust themselves and make choices they can feel good about.

Sometimes when life gets hard, it is difficult to ask for help. I aim to provide a safe and welcoming environment that encourages feeling seen and being heard to make that first step a little easier. I am passionate about helping college students and young adults with anxiety, depression, low self esteem and life transitions understand themselves better and build on their specific strengths. Together, we will work on adapting and personalizing tools to assist in learning how to regulate emotions, explore why certain patterns of thinking and behaving exist, and heal past wounds.

As a clinical social worker, it is my privilege to connect with individuals and couples to co-create a path toward growth. I enjoy helping clients develop a greater understanding of themselves, cope more effectively with life stressors, build healthier relationships, and improve their overall wellbeing.

I have been a Clinical Social Worker for over 40 years. I bring a lot of passion to my work, and am quite active in the process. I utilize a goal oriented perspective focusing on solutions and growth, while also helping patients/clients develope their own insights and awareness. I like to give feedback to folks, and feel that therapy is a process to help create change. My ideal patient is someone who is motivated to work on their problems, is flexible, has a sense of humor, and knows that the therapist does not have all the answers.

Research has shown that people don't learn from people they don't like. Effective therapy evolves if the person seeking help likes the helper and experiences the helper as empathic, humble, competent, humorous and caring. Therapy is a respectful, mutually active endeavor between the helper and the patient in which the client feels comfortable, safe, and confident. Constructive therapy gives clients hope: that they will experience increasing well-being; that they will enhance their quality of life; that their social relationships will improve; and they will feel greater congruence between their feelings, thoughts, and behaviors.

Most people who seek therapy do so because they are in some form of pain. The process of therapy itself can be difficult and uncomfortable, but the rewards outweigh the risks. I enjoy engaging with adult patients who want help and are willing to do the work it entails to feel better.
